FlowDown - Open & Fast AI

Get your task done smooth.

Free

FlowDown is a fast, minimal AI chat app that makes working with large language models smooth, focused, and fully under your control. Why FlowDown Lightweight and efficient Focus on your conversation, not the app. FlowDown launches quickly, stays out of your way, and keeps long chats responsive, even on busy machines. Rich formatting with Markdown Get clear, readable answers. FlowDown renders Markdown beautifully, so code blocks, bullet lists, tables, and headings in AI responses are easy to scan and use. Works with the tools you already have Connect to any OpenAI-compatible API, from major cloud providers to services running in your own home lab. If it speaks the OpenAI API, FlowDown can talk to it. Talk with text, images, and audio Show, don't just tell. Paste screenshots, drop in images, or record your voice to ask questions. Use it to: - Transcribe meetings or lectures - Summarize voice notes - Ask about what's in a photo Conversations that feel instant Blazing-fast text rendering makes responses stream in fluidly, so you can start reading and refining your prompt without waiting for the model to finish. Automatic chat titles Stop hunting for the right thread. FlowDown names your conversations automatically based on their content, so you can quickly find that "API bug fix" or "Trip planning" chat later. Shortcut integrations Use FlowDown in your workflows. With Shortcuts support, you can: - Send selected text from another app to your model - Generate drafts, summaries, or replies with one tap - Build custom automations that call your favorite model Privacy by design Your data is yours. FlowDown does not collect your chats. For maximum confidentiality, you can run models locally on your own machine with no external server involved. Open source and transparent Every line of code is available on GitHub. Inspect it, audit it, or adapt it to your own setup. You can see exactly how your AI client works.

Remote models We support a wide range of OpenAI-compatible APIs. For consistent, reliable use, we recommend: - Bringing your own API, or - Hosting your own inference server on local or home-lab hardware FlowDown supports all OpenAI-compatible endpoints, making it ideal for connecting to tools like Ollama and LM Studio running on your own machine for maximum privacy. Some setups require technical knowledge. If you are new to self-hosted AI or custom endpoints, please read our documentation carefully; the app can be challenging without it.
